line.
F. Refer to Illustration 88 or 89 for the minimum acceptable
flow rate.
G. Remove the temporary drain line from the drain port on the
TPIR. Connect the TPIR return line to the TPIR.
TPIR flow rate Result: The fuel flow is greater than the minimum limit.
Proceed to Test Step 8.
Result: The fuel flow is less than the minimum limit.
Proceed to Test Step 7.
7. Transfer Pump Inlet Regulator (TPIR) Return Test
A. Make sure that the TPIR return line is not blocked or
kinked.
B. Check that the Electric Fuel Lift Pump (EFLP) is operating
correctly.
C. Make sure that the fuel lines between the EFLP and the
TPIR are not blocked or kinked.
